Fire Emblem: Crossed-Worlds

Chapter 7: Escape

What you need to know:

After some thought, what I said previously is false. There will be two arcs. I've realized this because I wanted to include a FE: Fates arc, but couldn't figure out where it would fit in the story. Instead, I'll be lengthening the second arc, as it was going to be much shorter.

Severa's parents are Cordelia and Gaius.

Kjelle's parents are Sully and Stahl.

Enjoy :D

How did I get in this situation? It went from finding the people who traveled through time with Lucina to saving a girl from Slavers to being captured! Why does Inigo have to be a womanizer?!

I'm currently on my knees in a grassy area by the ruins, my arms tied behind my back. Apparently I'm about to meet their leader. I'm so dead. At least I can safely assume Inigo and Noire made it out ok. I hope.

Just then, a man walked out from around the corner. "I've told ya a million times! We don't capture no guys, just little lasses like the one we followed here! Now get back to searchin, I'll deal with our little 'friend' here."

He walks up, and immediately I smell the beer and smoke on his clothing. His stench is only overpowered by his ungodly awful clothing; a ripped and shredded cloak with a hood surrounding his neck, muddy brown boots, ripped shirt and pants, and a crappy iron sword, which looks like it's on its last leg. His pointy chin is covered by a gruff beard, and he looks about in his 30's.

"So yer the boy who killed one of dos' men I hired!" He spits, pointing the tip of his blade in my face.

"And? He tried attacking me, I defended myself. It just so happened he died in the process."

"I don't like yer attitude, kid. You're gonna pay for doin that. Every negative action gots it's consequences."

"If that were true, then you guys would be in jail, or worse, dead," I snort.

He sends a hard kick to my face that hurts like crazy. I look back at the guy, spitting blood out. "You little thug! How dare you talk back to me, Ezra?!"

Wow, this guy's really full of himself, isn't he? "So now what? You gonna make me join you? You gonna kill me? Let me go?"

He laughs. "HA! You ain't goin nowhere. You kill one of my men, then expect to escape scot-free? Don't make me laugh! This is gonna be the last of yer day's, kid!"

Just then, I hear thuds from all around me, then a voice. "I didn't know I was so good with a bow!" Is that Noire?

"Ugh! We don't have time! Let's just take these guys down!" That can't be Inigo, that was too… Feminine. Who is it?

Ezra starts backing up, holding his sword out in front of him. "Damn! How did this hap- Wait! Didn't we just catch you two?"

"And? We had help, you disgusting perv!" Another women. Who are these people?!

Suddenly I feel something cutting the ropes tying my hands together. "Here, Will."

"Inigo? Is that you?" I ask, standing up. I turn around, and sure enough, it is. Behind him are three women: Noire and two others. One has light brownish hair, wrapped into double pigtails. She has a shield like thing on her left shoulder, white metal boots, blue pants with a light gray stripe running up each leg, a pale-ish sleeveless shirt, and gloves almost going to her shoulders, only held on by a small belt of some sort, and's holding a silver blade. The other has short, brown-ish hair, a small, light blue chest plate, light blue boots, and a light blue shirt underneath the chest plate. Her arms are covered by blue armored gloves, and theres a big lance on her back… Wait are they-?

"Severa and Kjelle?!"

"Eh?" They say in unison.

Uh-oh, I screwed up now.

Kjelle looks at Inigo. "Who's this guy?"

Inigo looks back at her. "His name is William. Lucina sent him to find all of us."

Severa raises an eyebrow. "Find us?"

I nod. "Ya. Lucina asked me to find her friends, the ones who traveled through time with her."

Severa shrugs. "That isn't important right now. Do you have a weapon?"

I check my back. "No, they must have took my blade."

"Find it then! We don't have all day."

I look around, spotting a bunch of weapons laying against the wall.

It's on the far left end. Hurry!

Eh? Oh, you again.

Yeah, and? Come on, grab the dang blade! I've gotta go.

Wa-

He's gone.

I run up to the line of weapons, and go to the far left end. Sure enough, there lies my sword, sheathed and on the ground. I quickly grab it and slide the strap over my head.

Running up to the others, I unsheathe my blade. "Let's get out of here!"

Just then, 10 men round the corner. We're completely outnumbered, and no one has that super powerful spell like Morgan does. I look around for another way out, but they blocked our only means of escape.

Yo! Pull it together! You're the son of- Wait, scratch that. You don't know it yet, but you've got a strong power inside of you, and that damned blade's sealing it away!

What power?

Damn, seems Naga hasn't showed you yet. Ok, here's the plan.

Why am I taking orders from you?

Cause, I know how this goes down, and I'm not letting you die!

Wait, what?

Ok, first, tell Noire to take out as many as she can with her bow. There's only ten or so of them, so the more she gets, the merrier. Then, the four of you rush the Slavers head on. Got that?

Y-yeah. Who are you?

I'm not entitled to say, but one day, you'll know. Bye for now!

Wait!

He's gone, just like last time. I sigh.

"Ok!" I shout. "We've got this!" I turn towards Noire. "Noire, take out as many as you can with your bow. The more the merrier!" I turn towards the others. "When they're close enough, we rush em'. There's only ten of them, and Noire should be able to take out enough of them."

Severa scowls. "Yeah, ten! There's only four of us!"

"If Morgan, Owain, and I can take down 15 of these bastards, I'm sure the five of us can take down ten!"

Severa steps back. "15? Just the three of you?!"

I hold my blade out in front of me. "Here they come!"

Noire immedietly launches 4 arrows, back to back, each fatal hitting one of the Slavers. I turn towards the others. "Ok, six of them, four of us! If you could break in and save me, this is a cake walk!"

I rush forward, heading for the nearest slaver. He puts the sword over his head, ready to swing down when I get to close.

"William, watch out!" Inigo shouts.

However, I'm already one step ahead. As the bandit swings his blade down, I sidestep out of the way, and stab him in his chest, and he collapses to the floor. I immediately rush at the next guy, who cowers in fear after watching his friend die. As I rush towards him, I flip the blade around in my hand, and hitting him in the face with the hilt of the blade, knocking him out, but not killing him.

I look around. Now we're on the winning side, because it's five v four.

I look at the others. "What are you waiting for? We're winning!"

The others rush forward, each taking down one of the bandits. The last one was taken out by another of Noire's arrows.

I swing the blade at the floor, getting the blood off the blade. I walk over to Inigo, sheathing the blade. "Next time, we aren't following rumors, Inigo."

Inigo smiles. "Hey, don't get mad! We found three of them! Now we only need the other six!"

I nod. "True. So what? We go for Nah now? And NOT follow rumors!"

Inigo laughs. "Ya!"

Suddenly, I feel a tap on my shoulder. "So, we leaving or not?"

I turn around to see Kjelle. "Er, ya." I turn towards the others. "Come on, let's get out of here!" The other four nod, and we all make a break for the town.

2 hours later…..

"It's only noon?! I feel as if three days have passed!" I grumble, still annoyed at Inigo's arrogance. I sigh. "At least we found you three."

We're walking out of town, taking our original plan of heading towards Nah.

Kjelle looks at me. "So, who are you?"

How many times am I gonna have to explain this? "My name's William. I'm from Hoshido, a country across the sea. I met Lucina a couple days ago, and she asked me to find you guys, for some reason." I know really why, I thought I knew where they all were, but I was completely wrong. The only person that was where they should be was Noire.

"Huh?" Severa scoffs. "You better have had a good reason for Lucy to trust you." I shrug.

"And one other thing," Kjelle asks, "How did you know it was us at first glance?"

Oh crap. "Um… Lucina described you guys to me."

Severa squints. "Suuuuuurreee." She sighs. "Whatever. So, where we headed?"

"We're heading east. We have reason to believe Nah is at some library of sorts." Inigo responds.

"Ok." Kjelle smiles. "Sounds like a plan!"

I sigh. I have yet to tell them I'm from another world, and that I'm just doing what Naga asked me. Honestly, I don't think I'll ever tell them, or anyone, for that matter.
